I upgraded my RPC from 10HP to 20 Hp to run a Mazak QT lathe. I bought it as a package and have been having some trouble with it. First of all when the idler is running and no load, it has a destinct "buzz" to it and has a 30 amp draw on one leg and 10-12 on the others. The builder claimes it's normal for idlers to have that much draw. Hummmm?
Using the same 20HP panel and hooking up the 10HP from my old RPC, I'm now getting the same "Buzz" as the 20HP motor and the same draw. The 10hp idler newer had a buzz when running with it's 10HP panel. The service legs are only showing 4-5 amps. How could this be normal?
